Abstract: | In this paper we construct a class of transonic shock in a divergent nozzle which is a part of an angular sector (for two-dimensional case) or a cone (for three-dimensional case) which does not contain the vertex. The state of the compressible flow depends only on the distance from the vertex of the angular sector or the cone. It is supersonic at the entrance, while for appropriately given large pressure at the exit, a transonic shock front appears in the nozzle and the flow becomes subsonic after passing it. The position and strength of the shock is automatically adjusted according to the pressure given at the exit. We demonstrate these phenomena by using the two-dimensional and three-dimensional full steady compressible Euler systems. The idea involved is to solve discontinuous solutions of a class of two-point boundary value problems for systems of ordinary differential equations. Results established in this paper may be used to analyze transonic shocks in general nozzles. |
